Samantha Murphy, Senior Staff Writer for TechNewsDaily.com, and I chatted yesterday about social media. Here's a snippet of what she wrote today based upon our conversation:
“People are adopting this type of technology into their everyday lives at lightning fast rates,” said Dallas-based social media consultant Giovanni Gallucci. “The need for these platforms may have always been there, but the vehicle to provide such content did not. High-speed Internet didn’t exist just ten years ago.”
It’s the combination of broadband connections, smartphones and even devices like the iPad that are allowing social media sites to boom, he added.
“Although many companies like Microsoft had e-tablets out for years, the concept didn’t really take off until Apple stepped in at the right time and created the iPad at the right price point,” Gallucci said. “When automobiles first came out, most people couldn’t afford them even though the need for a car was always there. It wasn’t until production became less expensive that real adoption occurred.”Read the fill article here.
Last week, I hung out with the crew at You+Dallas at the FC Dallas v. Real Salt Lake City Game. My partners in crime during this shoot were Aaron Gentry, DP; Dan Baumgartner, 2nd Camera; and Bubba Willis, 3rd Camera.
Last night, the crew at You+Dallas was invited to participate in a drive-along with the Dallas Police Department. Thew team had a rather uneventful night but still got some good footage.
I can't help but mention the irony of having Lady Gaga in town with her gaggle of little monsters sitting on the hot concrete in the Dallas summer sun when, just up two blocks and down S. Lamar at the Dallas Convention Center, May Kay is having a convention. I suggest no-one cross the streams. Who knows how many fatalities would result from these two groups mixing it up.
The Grand Streets of Dallas are composed of luscious landscaping, gorgeous large-scale lots, and intricate details. A deep setback sets the scene for prime real estate, and the consistency of these neighborhoods creates a sense of establishment. The Grand Streets hone a sense of intrigue that is all their own, and it makes them all the more interesting. As people pass by, they may wonder, ‘just who lives in these gorgeous homes?’.
